Hi everyone! 👋
For the #envatochallenge, I wanted to explore Envato in as many ways as possible, from stock assets and fonts to AI image generation, video creation, animation, mockups, and even the music for this video. To do that, I created Cherry's kitchen — a cozy café brand inspired by warm summer afternoons, homemade cherry desserts, and family gatherings.
Throughout the project, I used Envato as my main creative toolkit while bringing everything together in Figma. I designed the mascot, visual identity, packaging, café interiors, animations, and brand guidelines. And honestly... I just couldn't stop exploring. Every time I finished one part of the project, I found another way to bring the brand to life.
One of my favorite parts of the process was deciding what truly belonged in the brand identity. I explored different concepts and made the creative decision, choosing what to keep, what to refine, and what to leave behind.
Check out the process video below! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the project 🍒😍
love seeing your process for this!
I love when clients have proper brand guidelines to follow, so I can translate their identity into a living motion system properly.
This was a really fun project to work on, especially finding a way to incorporate the branded dot and making it have its own personality through motion. 😊
Great execution and attention to detail. Love it Dani!
Candle & Crumb, "Some cakes come with dragons."
For this challenge, I made a 24-second ad for a bakery that doesn't exist. A completely ordinary family birthday, one small impossible guest, and nobody reacts. That's the product: some cakes come with dragons.
I'm a filmmaker, so I treated this as a directing job, not a generating job. One master frame was born first, and every shot inherited its DNA through start frames and references. The family went through three castings (the first felt sad, the second laughed like a stock photo). The tin went through three lives (a transparent one would have killed the reveal). The dragon was cast like an actor: one reference sheet, seven poses, every shot.
Human by Design moment: My first instinct was to make the dragon fly in and light the candles from the air. Halfway through, it stopped feeling right. A flying dragon is a spectacle, and this world doesn't do spectacle. So I made the opposite decision: the dragon stays in the tin, never stands up, and lights the candles lying down. The joke isn't a dragon that performs. It's a dragon that can't be bothered.
The Project Includes:
- The Film (24s ad)
- The Brand (Candle & Crumb wordmark, slogan, closing card)
- The Dragon (character reference sheet)
- The Workflow Video
Created entirely with Envato + AI.
Envato tools used: ImageGen, ImageEdit, VideoGen, SoundGen, Music, Sound Effects, Fonts
Thanks to Envato and Contra for introducing me to a toolkit I had somehow never touched. I had never used Envato before this challenge. Turns out that was my loss.
